Lowering our rides..

Has anyone has any issues with lowered cars that the lift system throws lots of warnings and error lights? I am waiting for my car to be delivered, but the previous owner says it has a light on for the front lift because he lowered it. Anyone else had this before?

 

Image Unavailable, Please Login Here is my 2013 Italia. Just dialed the springs down. Don’t forget the alignment. Have to use spring replacement if you have a front lift.

 

I lowered my 458 myself - 15mm lower in the front on the stock coil overs; just turned the collars down. Has to build my own spring compressors though

It is not simply screwing up the shockers, the alignment is the most important. Use these rings/plates in # 10 !

multi-link suspension - by its design - pretty much holds the alignment constant thru travel. Just lowering a few mm isn't going to have much of an impact

Well ... measuring is the only answer Ray

I like lowered ferraris
My rear Shock absorbers the treads sticking
No movement possible.pls help
I think i have to cut the Big nut and install new one
Do you have any causes like this?

 

Per my dealer, after production at the factory, they actually raise all the cars delivered to states. Also confirmed they will lower my incoming 488 Spider if I choose to and it is not hard thing to adjust. But told ride will be harder than the 488GTB I had that I didn’t lower.

 

In my opinion to do it right...Novitec springs standard 20 inch rims with spacers gets you the best look and handling

 

Wel, that is not strange, is it ?

 

Have the dealer lower the vehicle. If the dealer knows what they are doing, you can ask them for Speciale alignment which gives the car a little more aggressive camber which improves corner in and out of turns.

Gorgeous

 

Oengus that looks absolutely beautiful. I've been thinking of lowering mine and really love the stance on yours. Do you mind sharing the manufacturer of your wheels. I've been searching for something similar.

 

sure bus stop, ADV.1 CS 21" FRONT, 22" REAR with Gloss Gun Metal finish + Novitec lowering springs.

Thank you for the recommendation! I love working with you on yours and the final outcome was picture perfect. ​

Feel free to contact me directly so I can provide you with more information on the setup above. ​

 

I can tell you that David was awesome to work with.......

 

I asked my dealer if they can lower my soon to arrive new 488 GTB.
he told me that it is not possible, because i have the lift system.
anybody else got that info?

 

If the car has front lift it will not be adjustable through the factory suspension. For cars equipped with the front end lift we use Novitec springs which lowers the car and you do not lose the lift function. ​

 

looks great lowered... i would love too do the same but worried about clearance when i use the lifter

 

Measure the front clearance with both the front lift fully up and fully down and subtract about 30 mm from each number. That's the drop that you can expect from the Novitec springs and it will give you a good idea on whether or not it's acceptable and tolerable for your usage. ​

 

My dealer told me the opposite.

 

my front lift works perfectly with the Novitec springs
